Porting our Apps to the iPad

For many years, our corporation has provided our employees with notebook computers while working out in the field.  At the time, it was really the only way to give easy access for our sales reps to the corporate network and we depended on them for our sales funnel.  But since the iPad was introduced, we have really been toying with the idea of porting all of our applications to this platform to make like much easier for our workers.

Before we could make an investment in the required hardware, we needed to make sure that it would be possible to have similar applications developed for the iPad.  Thankfully, we were able to enlist the help of an iPad app development company to assess the situation for us.  After a short afternoon of going through our requirements and going over the existing software, they told us that they would be able to help us out.

There are still a few weeks before we will have the complete set of applications, but from the beta versions of the apps, it looks like they will all work remarkably well.  We have put our order in for the hundred iPad2s that we will need for the workforce, and we have already started working on the training material for when we change over to the new system.  I certainly will be thankful when everything is done, and I really look forward to seeing how much difference this change will make in our organization – I think it is a move in the right direction.
